Title: Valve stem packing-two rings in telescoping engagement expand radially under axial force
Inventor: WILLIAMS P C
IPC: F16K41/04
Filed: 1984-06-19
Abstract: A valve body (B) has a stem passage rotatably receiving a valve stem (C). A packing (52) surrounds the stem in the passage and a packing nut (100) threaded on the stem applies axial force to radially expand the packing into sealing engagement with the stem and passage wall. The packing comprises co- operating first and second packing members (60, 62) engaging at angularly disposed slippage surfaces for translation of compressive axial forces into radial expansion and sealing engagement with the stem and with the passage wall. A packing support ring (50) engages the end face of the packing adjacent the packing nut. A gland (58) engages the support ring (50) and a pair of reversely positioned spring washers (90a, 90b) are interposed between the gland and the packing nut. A handle (102) is attached to the stem by a handle nut (106), and a spring washer (90c) interposed between the handle and the handle nut prevents loosening of the handle nut.

Title: Battery pack for cordless implements
Inventor: WHEELER DALE KENNETH
IPC: H01M50/548
Filed: 1994-03-30
Abstract: A battery pack 13 (FIG. 2) comprises an elongated cylindrical, metal casing 35, a plurality of cells 41, 43 in casing 35 and three coaxial pack terminals 46, 54, 61.

Title: Article comprising starch-based fibre-reinforced cellular matrix, the fibres having an aspect ratio greater than 25
Inventor: ANDERSEN PER JUST
IPC: C08L3/00
Filed: 1995-09-12
Abstract: Articles, particularly containers and packaging materials, having a starch-bound cellular matrix reinforced with substantially uniformly dispersed fibers and methods for manufacturing the articles. High strength articles that have adequate flexibility and toughness immediately or very shortly after being demolded without the need for subsequent conditioning are molded from compositions having a starch-based binder and fibers that are uniformly dispersed by means of a high yield stress fluid fraction within the starch-based composition. In a two-step mixing process, a preblended mixture is formed by gelating a portion of the starch-based binder or other thickening agent in water to form a liquid phase having high yield stress into which the fibers are substantially uniformly dispersed. At least some of the fibers preferably have an average length of at least about 2 mm and an aspect ratio of at least about 25:1. The remaining starch-based binder, water, and other desired admixtures, such as mold-release agents, inorganic fillers, rheology-modifying agents, plasticizers, integral coating or sealing materials, and dispersants, are added to the preblended mixture to form a moldable starch-based composition, which is molded between heated molds to produce form-stable articles having a desired shape and a selectively controlled foamed structural matrix. Such articles can replace articles presently made from conventional materials like paper, paperboard, polystyrene, plastic, or other organic-based materials and have especial utility in the mass-production of containers, particularly food and beverage containers. <IMAGE>
